Fast road repairs are possible with the new technique from Stirling Lloyd

Major road repairs have been carried out on the UK’s busy M25 motorway. 2314 Stirling Lloyd's Safetrack Crack Infill is helping to reinstate major sections of London's M25 orbital motorway.

The repair work to fretted lane joints within carriageways of the M25 is being undertaken as part of a Design, Build, Finance and Operate (DBFO) contract for the Highways Agency by leading road marking and repair specialist LMS Highways. The MMAX lorry-mounted repair system provides a fast, cost-effective and safe solution and uses a specially formulated version of Stirling Lloyd's HAPAS-approved Safetrack Crack Infill, which is based on the company's advanced fast-curing reactive resins.

Recent M25 repair work has been completed on the motorway's northern sections from junctions 22 to 25 around South Mimms and at junction 5 near Godstone, with Stirling Lloyd developing a bespoke concrete grey coloured system to blend in with the road surface.

    Warsaw’s General Stefan Rowecki Bridge, or the Grota Bridge, is the second largest in the Polish capital and, as part of the Trasa Toruska expressway, it is the busiest. The structure, which opened in 1981, handles 150,000 cars daily, so repairs were always going to be tricky if minimal disruption to traffic was to occur. The steel orthotropic deck consists of two structurally independent parts – each with four traffic lanes. This meant that pedestrians and cyclists were restricted to two very narrow track
